This is a 10* GAME OF THE MONTH on the New York Giants.
Setting the scene: Minnesota is 3-0 because of its tough defensive play. The offensive unit has been horrible though. While far from perfect, the Giants are much more balanced, with both their offense and defense ranking in the top 3rd. We think the skill players and overall depth of the visitors will prove to be too much for the over-achieving Vikings to handle tonight and while we wouldn't be shocked by an outright upset, we're going to recommend grabbing as many points as you can.
The Giants: New York had a mental lapse in last week's 29-27 loss to the Redskins as Eli Manning was picked off three times. The offense would go on to finish with 28 first downs and 457 total yards (120 rushing). Manning was solid (other than the three INT's), finishing with 350 yards on 25 of 38. WR Odell Beckham Jr. had 7 catches for 121 yards. So far the Giants average sixth in the NFL with 396.7 yards per game and 99 YPG on the ground. The defense isn't far behind, allowing just 339.7 YPG, good for tenth in the league.
The Vikes: We think that Minnesota suffers a classic letdown tonight, especially after its 22-10 road win in Carolina last week. So far the defense has been great, allowing just 295 yards per game, ranked 6th in the league. The offense though has been terrible. Last week it had just 13 first downs and 211 total yards. Sam Bradford was an unimpressive 17 of 28 for 171 yards and a TD. Minnesota managed just 45 yards on the ground off 16 carries. With the injury to Adrian Peterson, it's not surprising to learn that the Vikes rank last in the NFL in rushing yards per game (note that they're also 28th in passing yards per game at 265.3).
The bottom line: The Giants play with revenge tonight after getting thumped 49-17 in Minnesota last season. Ultimately we believe that the Vikes' "luck" runs out this evening as we're expecting the veteran Manning to at the very least, keep his team in this one down the stretch. Grab as many points as you can, play on NEW YORK (and consider sprinkling a little on the money line as well!).
